Misspell! Help me!

quicksilver · Post by **quicksilver** » Thu Jan 05, 2006 7:29 am

My dear friend is going to host the show for his university .The game is that : the words you often misspell.
Maybe all of you can help me to help him . Which words do you often misspell?The reason to make you misspell is that the reading and the writing is rather different.

For example:

Incorrect Correct
Seperate ... Separate
Revendge ... Revenge
Cheteau ... Chateau
Pronounciation ... Pronunciation
Isarel ... Israel

Desperate( you mistake it for the way you write separate , so you may write desparate)
And so on

Plz, i need your help. Tell me the words we may write or spell incorrect.

I don't know... Let me think...

Correct / Incorrect

Feminine / Femenine (pretty common in Catalan and Spanish speakers)
